Changeling Press Reader’s Loop

Tell us about your latest book, including its genre. Does it cross over to other genres? If so, what are they?

A Worldly Cage is an erotic science fiction romance with BDSM elements. In it, a high class escort runs away from the man she loves because he wants a more permanent, and equal, relationship between them. When he finds her, she discovers that she has a place in his world.

What can we expect from you in the future?

I have a vampire holiday story coming out from Changeling Press called Drink me Sweetly.

How do we find out about you and your books?

My website is the best place to look.

Why did you decide to write romance novels?

I love writing romance with the happily ever after. I have fun exploring different times and places, and different types of characters, yet finding that they’re all the same in that love conquers all.

Generally, how long does it take you to write a book?

Usually just a couple of weeks since I write shorter novellas.

Do you have a set schedule for writing or do you just go with the flow?

I try to write 1000 words a day.

Where do you start when writing? Research, plotting, outline, or...?

I just start writing the story. I find it works better than way as I really get into the characters’ heads to decide what comes next.

What about your family, do they know not to bother you when you are writing - or are there constant interruptions?

I generally multi-task, so I am writing while watching television or doing other things.

What do you do to relax and recharge your batteries?

Reading.

erotic SF BDSM romance

When Ninali found out Sebastian, her handsome dominant lover, was more than wealthy, she’d fled. She loved him, but she’d never be a part of his world. He was one of the political elite back on Earth, and she would always be a high class prostitute. Fleeing Sebastian cost money she didn’t have, and Ninali ends up working in a brothel.

After a long search Sebastian finally found the woman he loved. Without hesitation he purchases her debts—and her. Now, the more difficult task. To convince her that he still wants her and that she can be by his side without shame or fear.

Will Ninali submit to her own desires and Sebastian’s to realize they have a future together or will she simply consider herself caged, albeit in a very fancy one?

Excerpt

Breezler narrowed his brows over his pale eyes. “You’re done.”

Ninali stumbled. She reached for the wall to steady herself. “What?” She sagged her naked body against the cool metal. Only with his words, did she realize Breezler held a small bag and a robe.

He tossed the robe at her. “Put it on. Your contract’s been bought. You’re not mine anymore.”

I never was yours. I just worked for you. She shrugged into the robe, noticing it was a finer weave than the ones in the dorms. Breezler dropped the bag containing the few belongings she’d brought with her and kicked it in her direction.  She opened her mouth to ask who bought her contract, but she didn’t need to know. Not after this afternoon’s performance. She knew exactly who had paid for her. Captain still wanted more than she should give. Only now she had to pay him for the debts she’d accrued getting away from him. Figures.

She nodded once, business-like, then picked up the bag. The door to her left beaconed. It led down a short hall and into the main room. She hadn’t been there since she’d come, cowed and broken, when Breezler had bought her debts. She took a deep breath, nodded, then walked back down the hall, leaving Breezler and the cages behind.

The hall, little more than a short pathway punctuated only by the door to Breezler’s office, opened into the main room. A few chairs, some pillows—she might have been stepping into some professional waiting room instead of the front room of a cage-brothel. There, in the corner, filling the room, was her Captain.

Air whooshed from Ninali’s lungs. Her Captain perused her, from the top of her tousled hair to her bare feet. She wondered what he might see, if he’d notice that she weighed less and had dark shadows under her eyes now. Maybe if she’d let him take care of her, she wouldn’t have those, but if she’d let him take care of her, she also wouldn’t be the woman she was.

Words ran through her mind. You found me. Why did you? What do you want? She kept them inside, not giving him the satisfaction.

Her Captain walked to her, his long strides taking him to her side in a matter of minutes. She held out her wrists, expecting to be cuffed, as she had been when Breezler had bought her debts and pressed into her service.

He shook his head and held out a slender silver chain.
